The Return of K0PIR to Home QTH and the IC-7610 Needs Firmware Update

After a long and adventurous journey, I am thrilled to announce that I'm back at the home QTH. I noticed today my IC-7610 needs a firmware update! Joy!
The journey back to the home QTH was not without its challenges, but the weather was great!
Being back at the home QTH has been enjoyable. I have been able to reconnect with old friends, revisit familiar frequencies/places, and rekindle my enthusiasm for this incredible hobby. I have also been able to reflect on my travels and appreciate the time I spent with my brother.
In the days and weeks ahead, I look forward to sharing more about my radio experiences, insights, and adventures at the home QTH.
This is my to-do list for the Ham Shack and Website so far:
- Update IC-7610 Firmware (video below)
- Reconnect USB3.0 cable and install HDSDR (video coming)
- Install CW Skimmer (video coming)
In conclusion, I have plenty to keep myself occupied and distract me from my brother's passing. I will go back to my old webpages and videos to finish the tasks listed above, and should there be any corrections needed, such as broken links, I'll fix them.
Thank You

Hi there. Nice to see your back from your travels. Sorry to hear about your brother.
Over here things have not gone to well and I’ve completely lost my radio enthusiasmradio probation over here in Thailand is terrible at best. The propagation on the upper bands is mostly not usable.
Hope you have fun in your radio room.
73.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your well wishes, it’s much appreciated. Sorry to hear about your current situation with radio propagation in Thailand. I understand how frustrating it can be when conditions aren’t ideal. Remember, sometimes taking a break can help rejuvenate your enthusiasm. Hopefully, the propagation conditions will improve soon.
Take care and 73,
Rich, K0PIR
Sorry to hear about your Brother. That’s rough. Hope you are doing ok.
Take care of yourself. None of us are getting any younger đ
Thanks for your kind words, Fred. It’s indeed a tough time but support from friends and acquaintances means a lot. I’m taking things one day at a time and doing my best to take care of myself. You’re absolutely right, we’re not getting any younger! On a lighter note, I hope to get the IC-7610 firmware updated soon and get back to doing what I love.
